Country: United States

Source: Strike the Root
Author: George Smith
Country: United States

"Stripped of its sensational aspects, Titanic is a morality play about the evils of wealth in the wrong hands.

What's public about public TV?
Source: Strike the Root
Author: Paul Hein
Country: United States

"Our local public TV was established by a group of influential citizens associated with a local university. Funding came from a few local businessmen. About the only thing 'public' about it is its incessant nagging for donations from the public." (04/06/02)
